Thanks for reminding me of that, Holger.

AFAIK, they're on the third rewrite now, and still have some bugs to work out. So what I've been recommending is unless you're (a) directly and specifically working with the devs to find and fix the quota issues (in which case please keep at it! =:^), either you (b) really depend on quotas working and btrfs isn't appropriate for you at this time, since they're known to be buggy, so use a more mature filesystem where they're known to work, or (c) you don't actually need quotas at all, so disable them and remove the quota tracking metadata, thus avoiding the bugs in the feature entirely. =:^) (Agreed with your conclusions and nothing to add to the rest of your message, so omitted here.) -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
